Using the 1st GEN RSX Power Steering Hard Line Loop is a breeze. First, make sure you've removed your power steering pump and lines, and you're left with open holes in the steering rack. Then, simply install the loop. It will let the air and fluid in the rack move around properly. But remember, this loop is only for 1st Gen RSX Chassis with one M14 port and one M16 port. If your rack has two M16 ports, it won't work for you. As for maintenance, check the loop regularly for any signs of wear or leakage. If you notice any issues, replace it right away to keep your steering system working well.
